Essential-Biotic® Saccharomyces Boulardii
Supports Healthy Gut Flora Balance*
Product Description
Essential-Biotic Saccharomyces Boulardii provides 9 billion CFU of a non-colonizing, acid-resistant probiotic yeast to support healthy bowel movements, gastrointestinal balance, and immune function.* Saccharomyces boulardii supports intestinal microbial balance, and secretory IgA and short-chain fatty acid production, and is well tolerated at clinically relevant doses.* It is a transitory microorganism and is eliminated after supplementation is stopped.*

Yeast-Based Probiotic for Gastrointestinal and Immune Health*
What It Does
Essential-Biotic Saccharomyces boulardii provides 450 mg (9 billion CFU) of Saccharomyces boulardii per serving which is a non-pathogenic, non-colonizing probiotic yeast that supports gastrointestinal function, microbial balance, and immune health in both adults and children.* It is well tolerated and appropriate for daily use or episodically for digestive support.*
How It Works
• Saccharomyces boulardii: A probiotic yeast that survives stomach acid and does not colonize the human GI tract, making it suitable for short- or long-term supplementation.*[1-3]
• Microbial Interaction: S. boulardii may bind to and neutralize microbial products in the intestinal lumen, supporting healthy bowel motility and microbial balance.*[4-7]
• Biofilm Disruption: Shown in preclinical studies to interact with microbial biofilms, aiding in microbial clearance and mucosal protection.*[8-9]
• Unique Protease Activity: Produces a protease capable of degrading certain microbial toxins and helping restore gut integrity.*[10-11]
• Immune Support: Enhances immune responses by increasing secretory IgA and short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) production, contributing to gut and systemic immune health.*[12-15]
• Well Tolerated: Human trials show efficacy and safety with daily doses ranging from 250 to 1,000 mg in various GI and immune contexts.*[16-26]
Who It’s For
Essential-Biotic Saccharomyces boulardii is ideal for individuals seeking microbial support to support immune and gut barrier function.*
Special Features
Unlike bacterial probiotics, Saccharomyces boulardii does not colonize the gut, making it uniquely positioned to support microbial balance without altering the resident microbiota.* Each capsule contains a research-backed dose for clinical flexibility.*
